RWANDA:Dr. Thoegene Rudasingwa Responds to French Report on Rwanda: We Shall Win!

(WASHINGTON D.C.) - On the 1st October 2011, I
published a confession in which I stated that Paul Kagame, then overall
commander of the Rwandese Patriotic Army, the armed wing of the Rwandese
Patriotic Front, was personally responsible for the shooting down of
the plane on April 6, 1994, in which President Juvenal Habyarimana of
Rwanda.

I stated that Paul Kagame himself had told me, in July
1994, that he was responsible for the shooting down of the plane. I
stated that Paul Kagame has to be brought to account for his role in
this terrorist crime that provided a trigger for the 1994 genocide in
Rwanda.

Rwanda Pres. Paul Kagame

I have also stated that myself and other witnesses are
willing, able, and ready to provide further evidence to national or/and
international jurisdictions interested in contributing to truth,
justice, reconciliation and healing in Rwanda.

Neither myself nor other new, willing, and able
witnesses have yet been able to meet Judge Marc Trevidic, or any other
international tribunal/court. to give the true account of the events
surrounding the shooting down of the plane.

Today, 10th January, 2012, the French Judge, Marc
Trevidic, investigating the 1994 terrorist crime, made public the
findings of the Technical Report by ballistic experts. Among other
things, the technical report stated that:

Rwanda Pres. Juvenal Habyarimana

a) the experts were leaning more towards the
version of the events that the missile that shot down the plane
originated from several areas, especially around the Kanombe area in
Kigali;

b) the missiles were made and supplied from the former Soviet Union and,

c) lawyers and other interested parties have up to three months to contest any matters arising from the report.

In this regard, I would like to state the following:

1. That the missile was fired from a number of areas in
the Kanombe area does not exonerate Paul Kagame from having committed
the crime;

2. That the missiles were of Soviet Union origin will
prove to be of substantive help in establishing who the real culprit is,
and;

3. That there is time for us ( myself and other
interested and new witnesses) to respond fully to the technical report
and provide credible testimony to Judge Marc Trevidic, or any other in
the international jurisdiction, to pin down Paul Kagame as the culprit
in this terrorist crime.

The wreckage of President Juvenal Habyarimana's plane.

I stand fully behind the letter and spirit of my
October 1st, 2011 confession. Judge Marc Trevidic’s technical report has
not proved me wrong. Nor has it exonerated Paul Kagame from this crime,
and yet Kigali is spinning the story out of context to celebrate what
it calls “victory”. In the coming months and years, myself, other
witnesses, Rwandans and others in the international community who heed
the call, will continue to endeavor to have Paul Kagame account for his
role in this and other crimes.

I would like to remind all Rwandans and the
international community that this is not Judge Marc Trevidic’s final
judgment on the matter. Furthermore, matters of truth and justice for
Rwandans will primarily be decided by us Rwandans. Even when the
international community and foreigners in general have had the
reputation of disappointing Rwandans, we must have faith in our struggle
for truth, justice, healing, and reconciliation.

Let us mobilize and organize, for truth and justice shall ultimately prevail.

We shall win.

Dr. Theogene Rudasingwa

﻿like so many, did bad credit pay day lenders investigation ahead of proceeding that has a refinance.Americash Mortgage presented the ideal rate using the lowest closing fees, so I decided to pursue.

Humorous thing concerning the appraisal, Americash orders it but wants you to spend for it outside of closing.
